WHAT is going on with my boobs?

DD2 is 11 months and my boobs have gone bonkers with the milk production!

I can't understand it, because she's not been asking for any more feeds to up the supply, or any fewer either - it's stayed about the same for the last few weeks - one feed for each nap in the day (2), bed time, midnight and about 5am.

Bed sheets have been soaked through for a few nights now, and in the day I'm having to change my top!

The only thing I can think to do is pump a bit off, but surely that will send the wrong message to my body...Confused

Maybe she is actually taking less as food is taking over? And your boobs not yet adjusted so getting a bit engorged and leaky?

That could be it, Spag, I suppose. DD1 took ages to get into food, so I didn't have this the first time round. DD2 eats whatever she can get her hands on! Grin

Wish it would hurry up and settle down, though, I am fed up of wet patches!
